Community interventiono projects and musical practices: contributions from latin american community social psychology
Main Article Content
Abstract
The theoretical contributions of this work are based on the perspective of Latin American community social psychology, in which the processes of awareness and participation are important psychosocial dimensions - in understanding the forms of naturalization and fatalism in community life - so that collective strategies can be built to over-come injustices and transform unworthy ways of surviving. The aim is to present an analysis of the interfaces and approximations between community intervention projects and musical projects. Firstly, the results of field research carried out with different community groups and social projects will be presented, in which artistic-musical activity has influenced the forms of community participation. Next, we will describe the dimensions that contribute to bringing artistic intervention projects and broader community intervention projects closer together. These dimensions are linked to the processes of community awareness and participation, using collaborative and participatory methodologies in accordance with the principles of Paulo Freire’s Popular Education and participant-action research. It concludes with a reflection on themes indicated by professionals in the community field that can support interdisciplinary training aimed at psychosocial interventions committed to a more dignified and just community life.
